1.The proposal to convert the existing building into two units of living accommodation is considered to be contrary to Policy HOU7 of the adopted version of the Great Yarmouth Borough Wide Local Plan in that the proposal would not accord with criteria of this policy in respect that the proposal would have an adverse impact on the form and character of the development in the area and would reult in a development that would be significantly detrimental to the residential amenities of the occupiers of the nearby dwellings. Moreover, the proposal is considered to be contrary to Policy HOU15 of the Borough Wide Plan in that the conversion will result in the provision of first floor living rooms directly overlooking the the rear of the residential properties on North Market Road to the detriment of the residential amenities of the occupiers.
2.Planning Policy Guidance Note 25 states that those proposing development are responsible for providing an assessment of whether the proposed development is likely to be affected by flooding and whether it will increase flood risk elsewhere and of measures proposed to deal with these affects and risks. The proposal has not taken into account the flood risk associated with this development and is therefore contrary to the above mentioned guidance.
